"Hugh Tracey has long been known for his intimate studies of the music, dances and stories of many of the Bantu Tribes of Southern and Central Africa. His enthusiasm for the art of the genuine African musician, dancer and storyteller was largely responsible for the establishment of the African Music Society of which he is the Honorary Secretary.
